How to measure an engineer. Thoughts on psychometrics.

Details

Ever wondered what makes engineers tick (besides coffee and Stack Overflow)? Join us for a curious, slightly nerdy, and hopefully enlightening dive into the world of psychometrics—the science of measuring the mind.

In this session, we’ll explore:
- Why so many engineers seem to share eerily similar personality structures (spoiler: there's a reason you love precise instructions and hate meetings without agendas).
- Why even NASA uses psychometrics to choose astronauts who can thrive under pressure—and how you can use the same tools to better understand your own stress triggers, communication style, and psychological needs.
- How to turn that knowledge into better teamwork, fewer misunderstandings, and a work life that actually makes sense.

Whether you're a Thinker who lives for logic, a Persister driven by values, or a Rebel just here for the memes and chaos, this event will give you fresh insights on what it means to be an engineer, from the inside out.

✌️Come for the science, stay for the existential clarity.
